A still from a video shows employees at a downtown Winnipeg Dollarama as they take a suspected shoplifter to a room marked 'employees only' at the back of the store on Wednesday. CBC has altered this image to conceal their faces.

A woman has been charged and Dollarama is investigating after security guards dragged a suspected shoplifter to the back of the store earlier this week.A still from a video shows employees at a downtown Winnipeg Dollarama as they take a suspected shoplifter to a room marked 'employees only' at the back of the store on Wednesday. CBC has altered this image to conceal their faces.

At the start of the video, two men are seen pulling a woman, whose hands appear to be bound behind her back, down an aisle toward a room marked "employees only." The woman cries out that she does not want to be taken there and tries to get away, but the men hold onto her arms and pull her into the room.Wood and another man yell at the security guards not to take the woman to an area further back in the room, as they record the incident on their cellphones.

CBC has not been able to verify the identity of the woman in the video, but Wood says she was later told by a St. Theresa Point councillor that the woman is from that northern Manitoba First Nation.

"They should have just waited for the cops to come instead of taking her to the back.… Roughing her around like that is uncalled for."'Enough's enough,' Foodfare owner says after family's vehicles set ablaze outside Portage Avenue store
